in this research, tribological characteristics of ni-p electroless coating and double-layered ni-p/ni-b electroless coating were studied. for this purpose, ni-p electroless coating with 25 μm thickness was initially applied to the surface of steel ck45 samples; then, a double-layered ni-p/ni-b electroless coating, including inner layer of ni-p with 15 μm thickness and outer layer of ni-b with 1...

The ternary Ni–P–W alloy coating was fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering technique with dual targets of Ni–P/Cu and pure W. Electroplating Ni–P process was introduced to obtain the NiP compound target with extra-high phosphorous contents around 21 at.%. The deposition rate achieved as high as 20 Am/h after modification of the processing parameters. The Ni–P–W coating with a high P/Ni ratio of...

in this research, b4c-ni cermet coating was sprayed on the surface of 4130 steel from b4c and ni feed-stockpowders using high velocity oxy-fuel (hvof) method. in order to characterize the tribological behavior of thecoating, ball on disk wear tests were done at the ambient temperature and under the loads of 1, 3 and 5 n.phase analysis of the coating after spraying was studied by x-ray diffracto...

The stability of an electrodeposited nanocrystalline Ni-based alloy coating in a H₂S/CO₂ environment was investigated by electrochemical measurements, weight loss method, and surface characterization. The results showed that both the cathodic and anodic processes of the Ni-based alloy coating were simultaneously suppressed, displaying a dramatic decrease of the corrosion current density. The co...

despite having some useful properties, stainless steels suffer from lack of suitable surface hardness. in this research electroless ni-b-tl coating was used with the aim to increase their surface hardness. the effects of nickel chloride, sodium borohydride, thallium nitrate and ethylendiamin on the chemical composition of coating were studied. to achieve an increase in hardness, the effects of ...

in the past 30 years, electroless nickel (en) plating has grown to such proportions that these coatingsand their applications are now found underground, in outer space, and in a myriad of areas inbetween. moreover, in order to further improve the mechanical and tribological properties of thenickel-phosphorous (ni-p) coatings, ni-p/ptfe composite coatings can be obtained, which provideseven grea...

The nickel-manganese (Ni-Mn) alloy coating prepared from DC electrodeposition process in sulphamate bath was studied. The effects of process parameters, such as current density and electrolyte composition, on the cathodic current efficiency, microstructure, internal stress and mechanical properties were investigated. Because of its crucial effect on the application to the electroforming of micr...

The use of magnesium alloys is limited due to their susceptibility to corrosion although they have many attractive physical and mechanical properties. To increase mechanical and corrosion properties of these alloys, many deposition method and coating types are used. Electroless Ni–B coatings have received considerable interest recently due to its unique properties such as cost-effectiveness, th...

Ni-Fe/Si3N4 nanocomposite coatings with various ratio of Si3N4 to Na-saccharine were prepared by electrodeposition technique. The effect of Si3N4 nanoparticulates in the Ni-Fe nanocomposite coatings was investigated in relation to the ratio of Si3N4 to Na-saccharine in the plating bath. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the Ni-Fe nanocomposite coating has face center cubic structure (FCC)....
